Vinyl LP pressing of this 1976 album. They are Britain's most successful reggae band, in terms of both popularity and longevity, and qualify as one of the best roots outfits to emerge outside of Jamaica. Aswad's ability to adapt themselves to the changing times was ultimately the driving force behind their decades-long career. Their debut album is still one of the band's strongest efforts. Nicely displaying the group's jazz-tinged, roots reggae sound, 'Aswad' features vocal highlights including 'Can't Stand the Pressure' and 'Concrete Slaveship', as well as the fine instrumental 'Red Up'. A strong start to the band's long and impressive career.
